How difficult must it be to get YouTube to use my webcam at 1280x720 resolution, like Skype and the webcam's actual software do? Always stuck with stupid 360p videos on my YouTube but whenever I Skype with people, they're like "holy shit your video looks so gooooooooooooood!"

kinda related, i checked up on the production VMWare network i built last year, the primary server is dual Xeon X5690s (Xeon version of the 990x) and cooled by a pair of H80s, in the server room they are sitting at about 7-10C under full load

-17c O_o, unless his room is being heavily air conditioned that's close to impossible.

Err

The temps were fake dude

It's not "close" to impossible, it IS impossible, you can't make anything cooler than the ambient temperature by using the ambient temperature itself (laws of thermodynamics!). The room would've had to be atleast -30c otherwise, and Tom would've been frozen to the goddamn bone.
